Does anyone have any experience creating synthetic saliva in laboratory conditions?

11 November 2019 0 1K Report

Hi,

I'm looking to research the effects of certain materials/foodstuffs in saliva, and I was wondering if anyone had any experience creating synthetic saliva for research purposes. Could someone give me a little guidance or point me in the right direction?

Thanks!,

Aisha.
